SPIRIT OP THE PUBT.IC JOURNALS. The >information which we have this day to commu nicate on the subject of Peninsular affairs is import ant, .and though not absolutely official, we have no doubt will be found substantially correct. His Ma jesty, in the Message which was most unexpectedly delivered to Parliament yesterday se'imight, said that he " had exerted himself, in conjunction with his all the King of France, to prevent such an aggression as had, in fact, taken place on the independence of Portugal. Such was the language of the King of England, through his Ministers, on the day above cited. On Thursday last the Speech also of theßing of France arrived, on the opening of the Legislative Session ; and herein; we find the folloWing passage : " Troubles have recently broken out in a part of the Peninsula. I shall unite my efforts to those of my allies to put an end to them, and to prevent their con sequences." It will be found, therefore, that these two documents are strictly in unison with each other. It is to-day our pleasing duty to communicate, that the same good understanding, the same identity of inten tions And operations, with respect to the Peninsula, tontinue between the Governments of France and En;and. The King of England's Speech, together with the account probably of our armament for Par tngal, had been received at Paris, when the Ministers of his most Christian Majesty nor only expressed their approbation of the course we have adopted, but pro fessed their readiness to support it, by the plainest de clarations to Ferdinand, that he must look for the im mediate removal of that portion of the foreign army which, is stationed at .Madrid, and the recall of the Freneh troops generally from the Peninsula, if he did not totally alter his system, and make (at least as we hope) the most plenary reparation for the wrong he has done. Thus, therefore, are the clouds blown from the political horizon at present. We hope, also, that they will he banished altogether. Our allies, the French, will observe that Ferdinand is in their hands, nut ours : they ought, therefore, to tutor and to mould him to the principles of justice anti reason. All the mischief has sprung from his part of the Penin sula; he must be restrained from committing more evil, or front hazarding the good understanding and peace of Governments much better than his own. We learn, indeed, from Madrid, that he has been fright ened ; and that Mr. Lamb's remonstrances, co-ope rathig with those of the French anthorities,.have for a moment at least inspired him, not with penitence for his offence, but with fear of its consequences. -Un der his present impression, be it what it may, lie must he forced to make patriotic concessions which he can not recall.— Times. The lovers of alarm would have it yesterday, that *there was a rebellion in Ireland, as well as a war with France. Upon the French intelligence, a short time , will enable us to pronounce as a matter of tact, not of opinion ; and with regard to the Irish, we can, with out further preparation, affirm it to be a piece of un adulterated fudge. The county of Westmeath has been fixed upon by a mischievous Orange Paper as the :,cene of this pretended insurrection ; the only foundation for the statement being, that there are hardly any resident gentlemen in that quarter ; and that, of course, the idle and reckless among the pea santry con unit a greater umber of petty acts of tur bulence, than, in those districts of Ireland where they are more easily watched. On ittfurniation that we have been able from time to time to procure respect ing fri , lt affairs, we venture to say, that the peasantry of that country never dreamed less of polities than they do at this moment. The disposition to resort to violence has shifted its place. The multitude are , generally tranquil; it is only the party leaders who ex . press any willingness to grapple with the laws. Our silence for some time past concerning these men and their various quackeries, has not arisen from ignorance of what was going forward in Ireland, or from indifl'e rence to it, but from a good-natured wish that their folly should be suffered to exhaust itself, and that a ft er foundering on ,until they were tired, and getting deeper ,into the mud, they might bury themselves at -last 4 g'ln peace and gide tit ess,' anti be forgotten. If these advocates, as they choose to be termed, of emancipation, will now let circumstances take their course, and not spoil a fine hand by forgetting " what are trumps," vve look upon it that an admission of Catholic gentlemen to Parliament will follow as na turally, in ease of another war upon the Continent, as the admission of the poorer sort to the elective fran chise arose ottt of the occurrences of 1793.—Mid; Nitwit as we admire elocinenee, it is a moot point whether it has not been, generally speaking, rather a enise'than a blessing to the world. That command- mg t a lents do and ought to lend the judgment of others no one can deny ; but that showy and seducing topics should rie used to a4ead the judgment is a perver sion of talent which is by no means a blessing to man kind. We know how many tongues we shall for a time raiiie sctainst US when we declare this to be our opinion'of Ma; Canning's late speech irr the House , of Commons—a speech which the greater part of the Press has lauded to the fikieo, ill praises which the public voice has re-echoed with a f`ervour bordering on insanity ; but which, we confidently predfct, th e future historian will place not quite so high on th e scale of Statesman-like qualities. 'We admire Mr. Canning's abilities quite as high au his warmest ad mirers can do; but sound judgment has not been Mr. Canning':; characteristic through life, and we much doubt whether this oration, splendid as it may be in , avords, poogessee any greater portion of discretion than fervid imaginations are too apt not to lioness. It is the native of audd en i m pul s e s to produce as sudden reactions.; znd we are much mistaken if the calm good 4e nse of the country is note already in some degree abashed at the eagernees with which it caught at this shadowy , eloquence, which, We ipon examination, con tains JO little of sithatance. know that the feeling produced by this splendid oration has not yet subsided ; btu we believe it is fast subsiding ; and the result we anticipate, will be, that the country will, ere long, be convinced, that to embark in a w ar f or o bj ects i n which it p osse sses no kind of interest is vecies of /inmate little adapted to its present situation, or the general benefit of mankind. Sh o u ld the mornentary excitement end, as it probably will do, 43 a mere fl as h in the pan, even the consequence of t his • inoment ary impute will cause John Bull a fit of grumbling, of heart-burning, and of remorse ; but should it lead to a general and protracted warfare, Mr. Canning'a eloquence will be as much condenmed and deplored by posterity as that of his great prototype, Mr. Pitt, lute been upon occasions of infinitely greater moment. To put the matter in .a tangible shape, let us soppiest, that the feelings of the country had been left to take their tone from the plain, unadorned state ment of Lord Bathurst, unaccompanied by the glow ing, animating, colouring, of Mr. Canning, and we will ask any'man whether he thinks that the same ,n thusiasm would have: been the result ; raid whether a More sober statement would-not-have produced a more staid and sober judgment - in the public mind ? C's speech possesses much more of the Advocate than the Statesinan. It may be, and doubtless is, very true that we are bound by treaty to assist Portugai when an emergenCy arises ; and nothing probably c a n show the utter folly and absurdity of - such treaties more, than the occasion which has now arisen. But, be- Cause we are bound by treaty to assist an ally, it does not follow that we are to make its cause our own be , iond the extent which such treaty requires ; still less is it necessary to labour to inflame.the public mind upon topics in which; if rightly viewed, we, have little or no interest beyond the faith of treaties. Were Portugal to become a part of Spain to-morrow (a cir cumstance which we by no means wish to see), we know not of what earthly consequence it could be to this country. It is 'to these treaties and Continental connections that we 'owe the foreign wars in which we have,been engaged ; and it is to these wars that we owe the null-stone of debt which!now weighs down and impoverishes us. Impressed with these opinions, and firmly perauadeil that peace is both the interest of the nation, and ha - preservation .the paramount chit) of the Government., we should ill discharge our duty to the publie if we joined in the wild a nd sense l ess c l amour ' for war, to which Mr. Canning's eloquence ha% for the ,moment, unfortunately given the tone. To resist that chimoitr—to bring back the judgment of the public to a Calm and rational state, is our object ; and, however unpalatable our efforts may at first be, we doubt not, but that, in the end, our motives will he appreciated,' and their results suceessful.—Morning Herald. We have been exceedingly gratified by the " Report by the COmmissioners for the Herring Fishery, of their proceedings, year ended sth April, 1825, being Fishery, 1825," lately:distributed. It appears from this document, that since April, 1810, therehas been an asto nishing increase in this, branch of national industry. in the year ended sth April, 1810, the total quantity of herrings cured was 90,185.4 barrels—the total quan tity of herrings exported that year was 35,848 barrels. In the year ended sth April, 1826, the total quantity of herrings cured was 379,2334 barrels-4be total quantify exported, 217,0731. The importance of our fisheries will be appreciated from the account given of the number of boats, whether decked or undecl6 ed, that have been employed in the year ended sth of April, 1826; in the shore-curing herring and cod and ling fisheries, distinguishing each station ; showing also the number of fishermen and .boys by whom the boats were manned, the number of coopers employed ; the number of persons employed in gutting, packing, re packing, cleaning; or drying the fish ; the number of labourers, and the total number of all such persons; together with the number of - fish-Curers in each district." It appears, from this account,' that the number of boats was 10,365 ; the number of fishermen and boys manning the boats, -44,598; the, number of coopers 2,106 ; the number of gutters, packers, Fer. 390 ; the number of labourers employed '7,947; and the total number of persons employed' 76,041. But the 76,041 are the persons employed., The number of persons . depending for' subsistence on , them must be very great. , Again, of the 76,041 per sons employed, 14,691 belong to England and the: Isle of 1-lan, 'and '61,850 to Scotland. Thus, then, it: would appear that the fishing of Scotland alone em- ploys More person s th an ere employed in the . far-'famed herring-fisheries of Holland, supposed to be the main pillar of her strength during the days of her greatest prosperity. We may see from this the vast 'importance of .scuttanti to OU navy, as a nursery of seamen ; for we believe, the smaller the Vessel in which a seaman is brought up, the greater i s hi s value, from the 'activity and power of general adaptation which : he, requires. he reflections with which the Commissioners conclude their report are exceedingly just.—"; The account now giv en ," t h ey say, cc wl be found useful in showing the importance of the herring, cod, and ling fisheries, a s a nurser y o f seamen for the navy, and as a source of employment for the poor ; while the other accounts exhibited will show its 'utility, as providing a cheap and. wholesome article of food for a numerous' portion of the commu nity, both at home and in the British settlements abroad." We regret, however, to find, that the dis tresses of the times have also affected the fisheries.— " Till towards the end of the year," say the Commis sioners, " the price of cured herrings was encouraging, anti the demand hrisk,bi it about that time,in Consequence of the distress among the manufacturing and labouring classes, the price began to decline and the demand to. subside ; and perhaps in no year since the appoint ment of the Commissioners has there been sucli a va riation in the price at the beginning and end .01 the season as took place within the period of this Report." We cannot conclude these few observations without lamenting that the misgovernment of Ireland should deprive the Empire of the advantages which a hardy population might easily derive from the rich seas of that fine island.. Ireland can hardly be said to have either a commercial navy or fisheries, and as 'a nursery for the navy is,therefbre of 'little consequence. When shall our rulers become so far :sensible of their folly as to remove the causes 'of the ,distractions which make Ireland a heavy burden instead of a benefit to the Em pire ?---Morning Chronicle. " Our ultimate object," said Mr. Canning, three years ago, to the people of Plymouth, " is the peace of the world ; but let it not be said, that we cultivate peace either because we fear, or because we are un prepared for, war : on the contrary, if, eight months ago, the Govermnent did not hesitate to proclaim that the country was prepared for war, if war should un fortunately be necessary, every month of peace that has since passed has hut made us so much the more capable of exertion. The resources created by peace are the means of war. In cherishing those resources, we but aecumulate those means. Our present repose is no more a. proof of inability to act, than the state of inertness and inactivity in which I have seen those mighty , masses that float iu the waters above your town, Is a proof they are devoid of strength, and in capable of being fitted for action. You well know how soon one of those stupendous masses, now repos ing on their shadows in perfect stillness—how soon, upon any call of patriotism, or of necessity, it would mime the likeness of an animated thing, instinct with life and motion—how Soon it would ruffle, as it were, its all swelling plumage—how quickly it would put forth beauty and its bravery, collect its scattered ele ments of strength, and awaken its dormant thun- I d seizn ssupitBrigis one o f these magnificent machines, from inaction into a display of its might, 4 "th is England herself, while, apparently , passive and motionless, she silently concentrates atini.ese.l7efra t a o c: e rta P it u i" t :ex l t 'o et r i t t i , on an adequate occa sion. But (.3rod forbid that that OCC&SIOn should unfortunately, the occa sion has ariseq. The' folly and madness of Ferdinand have made it necessary, in spiteJiAll .theprudenee of our own Ni n i s ters, to put forth a port on_of that strength, has sometimes hid defiance, and some times brought sakatiott, to the whole' of Europe. ,The promptitude With which we have inet :the, call of our ancient ally shows that Mr. Caning's words were not the mere emanation of. fancy, hut were the eloquent expression of feelingS and principles which are the practical rule of, his conduct. The rulers of Britain have. never .yet over-rated, her might ; and when we place ourselves in the front of a,threatened contest, into which we'are summoned, not by a regard to our own safety, but by the duties we owe, and the obliga tions which bind us to an ally, the world may be as sured that we will display a-strength equal to the occa sion. The conduct of our Government has been no less dignified, than prompt and firm. there has been none of that blustering, which is so delightful to the ears of some. We have not threatened uI pompons words ; we have stated. calmly, that we would not per mit certain things to be done, and we have used every means of repreikentation - and persuasion to prevent a despot, who owes his very exrst e n ce , a s a Monarch, to British arms, from pursurng a mad career. Those gentle means have proved inefl'ectual ; the prescribed limit is transgressed ; anti the instant that that step is taken, our troops embark, to protect friim the puny assault of Ferdinand that country, from which they expelled, at the point of the bayonet, the mighty armaments of Napoleon. But, while we see dearly how far the last kw days have removed us from a state of undisturbed peace, let us not exaggerate ,those circumstances in our foreign relations Which are of a warlike complexion.— Spain has unquestionably been guilty of an act of aggression against Portugal; ibr to permit rebels to maintain themselves in a state of military organiza tion, and to supply them With the means of entering Portugal in hostile array, is an act of positive war fare, which makes hour duty to stretch forth our pro tecting arm, and will even justify any measures of reta liation and ponishment which we may deem it pru dent to adopt against the assailant. Still it does not place us:in direct and inevitable war with Spain. It is extremely possible that both Ferdinand and his ad visers have been hitherto 'blind to the true nature of their own proceedings. With.the casuistry of monks, they might flatter themselves, that. it was enough for them to abstain from declared and formal hostility ; that they could not be held answerable for the march of Portuguese rebels, who were not avowedly sup ported by the Spanish Authorities; that it Was not their fhult if those rebels diffused throughout Portugal a belief that the insurrection was backed by Spain ; and that they might thus avail themselves of every chance of subverting the Portuguese Constitution, without, giving England a dear and palpable subject of complaint, and still more, without Imposing upon her the necessity of buckling on her armour, and hastening into the front of the battle. Such dreams of flimsy deceit, are stated to the minds of the class of men who now govern Spain ; but when. they see, that the event is very unlike their anticipation,—when. the "word of England, unsheathed in defence of Portugal, glitters before their eyes, and their own conduct is to determine, whether it Oa return into its scabbard, or descend upon their heads—they will tremble at, the danger which they have thoughtlessly encountered, and sullenly endeavour to propitiate the Power whom they have Offended.— Nezy Till?.

SAN,--Asymi insertestin your•columns about a rortnikhl ago, short letter from tue 1/11 a very singular pamphlet, entitled Il lustrations of Mr. M‘Cullochts Political Economy, by Mordecai Mullion, perhaps yon may give admittance to' another from the same person, provided it be written in a spirit suitable to the sig. nature he then used.--F.tia Ils/arsa. . In that 'pamphlet Mr. N•Peulloch is accused of having often palmed upon the public his old disquNitioni on anhjects of Politi cal Is:Conomy for new ones, sometimes -with-very slender altera tions, and sometimes with none at all, thereby unjustifiably occa sioning loss of 'money to all who, like me, in ignorance of the fact, have purchased his writings. Two defences . of Mr. Mien]. loch have been put forth in the Scotsman, the first by himself, and the second by the Editor of that paper. Both appear to me very weak, or wholly irrelevant. The facts of the ease are thete, verified by actual quotation from the pamphlet : I. Mr. M'Culkich has repeated verbatim, in the - last number of the Edinburgh Revieiv, a long, and, I think, an 'able article on Mr. Jaeob's Report, from previous numbers of • the Review.— Two . ..thirds of • the article are to be found in the number for Oce toiler Ml.—and the other third in the number for February . 1822, and in the Seaman and the Supplement to the Enegelo pirdia. - IT. Mr. lkl4Culloeh has publishe►l the same articles, or the greater part of the same articles, in the Supplement, in the Edinburgh Review, in In Elements qf Political Eennoniy, an►l in the Scotsman. 111. Mr. in a preface to hi• Elements. of Politi cal .Eentionly, informed the public that that work, though a re publication of the article in the Supi)fruient, " was in most re spects a new book," whereas it i* no such thing—the additions being small, and to be found in the Scotsman, and in the Edin burgh Review, or elsewhere. • IV. Mr. APCulloch published An Essay on Wages, which he tells the public was written for Constable's' Miscellany, Whereas it is to be found in the Supplement, and in his Bien/pots, and in the Edinburgh Review. V. Mr. l‘Peullocli has published a Diseourse introductory to his Lectures, which is to be found almost wholly in the Supple ment and in - the Elements of Political Economy. '4lOl this being the ease—the question is—is such conduct right or wrong ? In my opinion it is wrong—and in many respects very die creditable to Mr. Al•Culluch. It it, in the first place, book making, to a degree never before practised by any man of his li terary character. i It s, in the second place, a manifest deception on that part of the reading Public who purchase books on Political Econorey. It is, in the third place, a proof of intellectual poverty, thus to keep founts repeating oneself over and ever again, without any other aftkinpt at variety than the dexterous- use of the shears. And fourthly, the first mentioned offence especially, puts the Editor of the Edinburgh Review in-a very ludicrous predicament, and if repeated would utterly ruin the reputation for originality which that work has so long justly enjoyed. I inn an utter stranger to all the parties concerned—except one, namely the readers of Political Economy. But as one of those readers, I repeat, that we have all just reason to think Mr. APCul loch', conduct reprehensible—and to hope that he will not persist in such practices, which ere not anly a bold hoax on our under rtantliegs, but a needless drain on our purses. If what Mr.:M`Culloch has done, be right, then lie is in duty bound to go on as llefaie r .,in which case we shall have his Essay on the Corn Laws a third time in some future number of the Edinburgh Review. Indeed, if his defence be a complete one, he is pledged to the public to—republish all he has written wherever and whenever he thinks fit. But I suspect he will henceforth act differently, and in his future contributions to the Edinburgh Review draw on those stores which have not yet been purchased and paid for by its numerous subscribers: I am, Sir, &e.

THE LATE BISHOP OF CALCUTTA. There was a special general meeting of .the members of this Society on Friday, at the rreemason4',Tavern, for the purpose of deciding on what step the Society should adopt in consequence of the lamented Dr. Heber's.death. The chair was oceepied: by Lord Gambier, and on his right and left sat the Right lion. Sir Charles Grant and Sir Robert Inglis. The Secretary, the Rev. E. Biekersteth, introduced the Rek'. Mr. Thomason, of Calcutta, who addressed the meeting. He had been intrusted with one of the reso lutions. He (the -speaker) testified to the pastoral care, universal charity, and Christian love of the late beloved Bishop Heber,. whom he had frequently conversed with in India on the subject of his important charge. His con descension to all who addressed him was remarkable. From the time the Bishop came to India he was a sincere and zealons friend to this society. His Lordship sop - ported the exertions of the 'Missionary branch in Cal- Cutta, and gave it his good wishes and his pationage; since which they had been going on prosperously under God. He moved the resolution, " that the Committee could not. but deplore the loss this society,had sustained by the death of Dr. Heber,.and felt themselves peculiarly bound to re cord their feeling of his, count enance t o th e missions emanating from the Society." The Right lion. CHARLES GRANT thought it unneces sary to say much to enforce, the adoption of the resolutiOn. It was little permitted to him to share in the :proceedings of this society, but he trusted the solemnity of the subject would be his. excuse. They met on a subject of mutual condolence on the , loss the Christian world has sustained; 'but he trusted they met also with hopes—hopes suggested by the cause which had convened them. The Right Hon. Gentleman entered into a Warm eulogium on the virtues and character of the late Bishop of Calcutta, round whose grave they had met to celebrate the fate of a martyr. He had sacrificed all his hopes of ambition in this country, where he was loved and admired by all, to a sense 'of his duty as a Christian -Bishop. Dr. Heber might have gone to India and attained great objects While, indulging himself in the gratifications peculiarly dear to his great genius, and secure from the dangers and the climate, and have re turned to this country to enjoy his high faMe 'obtained in India. But this was not the lesson he had drawn from his early visits to Palestine and the precincts of Calvary; he had vowed uncompromising allegiance to his God when he assumed the badge of the ministry, and that allegiance he preserved to the last. Thus animated and inspired, he entered that country with the spirit of a misSionary and a martyr—as a mission try he commenced, as martyr he terminated his conrse.—(Hear.) The resolution was carried unanimously. Sir RunEnv H. INGLIS moved. the second resolution. It did not require eloquence to ensure its success. He was sure no one, looking at India merely in a limited view, even supposing that the Bishop resided in tranquil enjoy ment in Calcutta, could expect that any one•talent,' what ever his piety and talents, would be sufficient for the dis charge of the episcopal duties required by Wife' One, martyr in the cause was quite sufficient, and he hoped that' the prayer of the resolution would. be complied with. The Hon. Baronet entered into a detail of the laborious duties which the late Bishop.had fulfilled. The resolution expressed the united request of this Society with that for Promoting Christian Knowledge, to increase ,the number of Bishops in India, but it did not name any . particular manner. Colonel SA\DYS seconded the resolution. He had. served long in India. From the circumstances of these days, they might draw an idea of what had been 'done at present. Great Britain had the ten talenti committed to her charge,—had she or not been an unprofitable servant ? What, he asked, hail she done ?. He referred to the 106th Psalm—" They all then mingled with the heathen in what, ever they did.' They seldom entered•a temple •of God for months. During the time Lord Cornwallis commanded in India, there was not a single Bible in the army ; he had presided at a court-martial, and, for want of a Bible, swore the witnesses on a Coinmon Prayer Book. Look to the contrast now ? The songs of Zion were heard in all puts of the Indian Peninsula. The Rev. Mr. THOMASON supported the resolution. Ile detailed the difficulties attendant on the Bishop's visits, tions in India, and related a very affecting anecdote of the late Dr. Heber's condescension in the discharge of the duties he had imposed upon himself. The resolution was carried. The Secretary read a memorial agreed to by the Com mittee to be presented to GoVernment, in furtherance of the views of the meeting, as contained in the resolutions. It adverted to the exertions of this Society in establiShing missions in India—declared their opinion that the two Bishops, Middleton and Heber, had fallen a sacrifice to their conscientious exertions, and concluded by a prayer that more Bishops than o u t be appointed for India. Colonel .Pmee.s.moved that the memorial be adopted, and that a ropy he presented to the first Lord o f the Trea sury, the Preside nt o f t h e Board of Control, and the Chair man of the East. India Company. mr. THORNTON had for more titan thirty years lived on a footing of intimacy with the late Dr. Heber ; they tra 'veiled together through great part of Europe, and a por tion of Asia, in their early, years. No one could, there. fore, speak with more propriety than he (Mr. Thornton) of the great ,loss sustained by the death of the lamented Bishop. He detailed the proceedings of that Prelate, from the period of his entrance on his episcopal duties, to the period of his melancholy death. The resolution carried. The Secretary detailed the first connexion of Bishop Heber with this Society. It took place at a missionary meeting in Shropshire. He then read some extracts from a letter of the late Bishep's chaplain, Dr. Robittion, de scribing the interview ,between his Lordship and the Mis sionaries of this Society in Ceylon. He also communi cated the substance of the Bishop's reply to the address which the missionaries had presented to him there. He concluded by a motion of thanks to the Chairman. Lord GAMBIER expressed the delight he felt from the proceedings of this day, and concluded by returning - thanks briefly for the vote just passed. MEETINGS OF CREDITORS.
